Guitar Chords & Lyrics

E
Saturday night I was downtown
G               A E
Working for the F.B.I.
E
Sitting in a nest of bad men
  G            A      E
Whisky bottles piling high

E
Bootlegging boozer on the west side
       G               A     E
Full of people who are doing wrong
E
Just about to call up the D.A. man
       G                A         E
When I heard this woman singing a song

A
A pair of 45’s made me open my eyes
   B
My temperature started to rise
         A
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
       G              E
Just a 5’9, beautiful tall
      A
With just one look I was a bad mess
           G                     E
’cos that long cool woman had it all

(Lyrics contiued...)

I saw her headin’ to the table
Well a tall walking big black cat
When charlie said I hope that you’re able boy
Well I’m telling you she knows where it’s at
Well suddenly we heard the sirens
And everybody started to run
A jumping out of doors and tables
Well I heard somebody shooting a gun

Well the da was pumping my left hand
And then she was a-holding my right
Well I told her don’t get scared
’cos you’re gonna be spared
Well I’ve gotta be forgiven
If I wanna spend my living
With a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5’9 beautiful tall
Well, with just one look I was a bad mess
’cos that long cool woman had it all

Had it all...
